The premature report by the BBC on the collapse of WTC 7 was a mistake resulting from the chaotic and evolving situation on September 11, 2001. There is no evidence to support claims that this was part of a conspiracy. The error was due to the reliance on incorrect info. https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/a-bbc-reporting-error-is-not-proof-the-network-was-part-of-an-inside-job-on-9-11/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/09/11/bbc-news-report-on-911-was-a-mistake-not-proof-of-plan-fact-check/70826459007/ https://fullfact.org/online/bbc-world-trade-center-7-september-11/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1815031533599699164
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
